    ASCO Series 4000 Transfer Switch Group - Automatic Transfer Switches - Enclosed & Open

    As the world leader in emergency and standby power transfer solutions, ASCO keeps your power on. ASCO Automatic Transfer Switches and Power Systems safeguard data and telecommunications networks, industrial processes and critical installations from health care facilities to financial transaction centers.

    Over the past 70 years, ASCO has pioneered every major product innovation in power transfer technology. ASCO is committed to providing a full range of quality-driven products, backed by 24-hour nationwide service support.

    ASCO Series 4000 Enclosed- ASCO Series 4000 automatic transfer switches are suitable for emergency and standby power system applications. Manual switches are also available for the same price as shown for automatic with a deduction of $150 per unit.

    ASCO Series 4000 Open - ASCO Series 4000 automatic transfer switches are suitable for emergency and standby power system applications. These units are identical to Series 4000 enclosed but do not have front covers or doors. This Series is designed to be installed inside rack systems or other enclosures and will not meet electrical or UL codes if installed standing alone.

    Sizes 150 through 3000 amps in a compact design with 2, 3, & 4 pole configurations. Available 120 to 600 VAC. UL 1008 listed to 480 VAC for total system loads. True double-throw, inherently interlocked construction to absolutely prohibit connecting both sources together. Mechanically held, electrically operated utilizing a reliable, field-proven single solenoid operator. Contacts easily accessible for easy inspection and preventive maintenance. Meets National Electric Code requirements (U.S.). Rated for emergency and standby applications.

      Remote contact for test or for peak shaving applications. The circuit will be automatically bypassed if the emergency source fails.
     
    Time Delays
    2C
    Provides an extended time delay on engine starting. The standard feature one-time delay is adjustable from zero to six seconds. Accessory 2C allows this time delay to be adjustable from zero to sixty minutes in one-second intervals factory set at five minutes.
    1G
    Similar to accessory 2C except using an external 24 volt DC power input. Available only as a feature of accessory 18Z.
       
    Indicators
    14A/14B
    Additional auxiliary contact sets to indicate switch position. Two sets are standard. A maximum number of two additional sets. (Varies by configuration)
       
    Neutral Conductor Options

    Solid neutral, with fully-rated terminals. (AL-CU) UL Listed.

    Conventional neutral switching pole.
      Note: Specify neutral option in catalog number, see ordering information page for instructions.
       
    Communications Options
    72A
    Serial communication module for remote communications to ASCO PowerQuest® or SiteWeb® products. Also allows 4000 Series Transfer Switches to communicate via Modbus/RTU.
    72E
    Ethernet connectivity module for remote communications to ASCO PowerQuest® or SiteWeb® products. Contains embedded web pages for the remote monitoring of ASCO products, as well as some 3rd party devices. Also, provides Serial-to-Ethernet link with the ability to communicate using Modbus/TCP.
       
    Customer Control Circuits
    30A
    Load-shedding circuit initiated by opening of a customer-supplied contact.
    30B
    Load-shedding circuit initiated by removal of the customer-supplied control voltage. (Specify voltage).
       
    Add-on Boards
    18Z
    Includes one Form C contact (Rated 2A @ 30VDC or.5A@ 125VAC) for each of the following:
    • Normal Source Acceptability.
    • Emergency Source Acceptability.
    • Selective Load Disconnect. - Pre and post transfer signal time delay for selective load disconnect with a programmable bypass on source failures - adjustable 0 to 5 minutes.
    • Fourth contact can be set to mimic the acceptability contacts or annunciate any combination of the acceptability contacts and/or any switch alarm conditions available:
      • Extended Parallel Time (Closed transition),
      • Failure to Synchronize (Closed transition),
      • Transfer Switch Locked Out (Closed transition),
      • Load Disconnected (Delayed transition).
    • Accessory 18Z includes an extension of the engine start time delay (feature) to 60 seconds if an external 24VDC supply is connected to a 4000 series controller. This external power source will also allow the LCD display to be active when both normal and emergency sources are unavailable.
